Add that to the winless run and the fact Barrow lost to a team two tiers below them, and you can begin to understand the fans’ unrest – even though these results do happen, the history of the FA Cup will tell you that.

There is no FA Cup “distraction” now for Barrow as there probably has been for the past two years.

They need to ensure that is a good thing, especially given the difficulty of the upcoming league games.

THE Barrow fans were on top form midway through the second half on Sunday when they gave the current chart hit Barbra Streisand a Bluebirds twist.

Singing all the “oo’s” in the same high-pitched style as the original, they then inserted the words “Barrow Soccer”.

It summed up the day, though, when FC United scored as they were in full voice.
